David Schneider -- "Crowded by Beauty"

David Schneider will speak about and sign his new book, Crowded by Beauty: The Life and Zen of Poet Philip Whalen, on Monday, June 6th at 7:30pm.

About the Book:
Philip Whalen was an American poet, Zen Buddhist, and key figure in the literary and artistic scene that unfolded in San Francisco in the 1950s and 60s. Drawing on Whalen's journals and personal correspondence particularly with Ginsberg, Kerouac, Snyder, Kyger, Welch, and McClure, Crowded by Beauty shows how supportive these intimates were and chronicles the course of Whalen's life, focusing on his unique, eccentric, humorous, and literary-religious practice.

Vouchers to attend are $5 and are good for $5 off the author’s featured book or a purchase the day of the event. Vouchers can be purchased in advance, over the phone, or at the door. Readers Guild Members can reserve seats for any in-store event.
